Decomposition of sodium hypochlorite bleach as it dries out?

The solid will be left behind as dry residue which once wet again will be b leach, so it will need washing down with clean water.

Well not for long. What's left will in general be salt and sodium chlorate. A weedkiller and explosive.

Oxygen and sodium chloride (or potassium chloride).

Or:

It'll not bleach stuff, but it will leave a thin powdery white residue...

You wear clothes in the shower?

Though cut with salt to that extent it isn't much of one. But it will still damage and bleach some sensitive organic dyes even as chlorate.

I'd expect in the shower would be no problem since the diluting effect of that much water will wash it away pretty quickly.

TBH I'd be more worried about having bleach in a plant misting bottle - it isn't likely to do house plants or eyes any good at all. Bottles used for detergents and bleach cleaning combos have a twist lock on the nozzle so that they can't be accidentally used.

Yeah, wot e said.

Thick bleach and plastic-bristled something to brusch reduces aerosols that could end up in your lungs....

No, but I have splashed bleach on my trouser legs while applying it (with a paintbrush, TBH) to the tiles & grout. ...

OK, I'll stick to doing this on days when I'm working from home, & I'll rinse it before anyone else comes home.

I'm not firehosing it from a distance, but applying it very close to the grout with the nozzle set to a narrow spray. I also have it labelled clearly & keep it out of the way.
